Reception
Debi Enker of The Sydney Morning Herald gave it 4 stars out of 5, summing up "Overall, though, Erotic Stories achieves what SBS promised, with an array of characters portraying the kinds of desires, frustrations and fears that are everywhere felt".[1]
Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen wrote in The Guardian, "Erotic Stories is probably somewhat of a misnomer – these stories encourage reflection more so than arousal" and also suggested that the "mix of voices and styles" worked better for some than others in the allotted time. She awarded 3 stars.[2]
